At no other time in history have we had access to so much information. Unfortunately, even with 24-hour news channels and the Internet, our news media provides us with very little depth. As an example, you probably heard plenty in the past week about trade wars, White House staffing turmoil and a possible summit with North Korea. But how many times did the talking heads and Internet pundits mention the following aspects of the stories:

Trump’s supporters like to give him credit for anything that is going well and either blame Obama for news that is less flattering or just dismiss the data as insignificant. The stock market provides a perfect example as it was considered a top accomplishment while soaring but now receives little attention. Could this be because at this same point in the Obama presidency it was performing better?

Trump’s supporters are already calling for a Nobel Peace Prize because he has agreed to meet with the North Koreans. This seems to be a case of counting chickens before they hatch as the specifics of this meeting have not even been worked out. In fact, the President is not always clear about which Korea he has spoken with.

It will be an amazing achievement if the Dotard and the Rocket Man are able to turn their Kindergarten Diplomacy into a peace treaty. If it happens, let’s hope that it is signed with the correct countries.

When protesters used their First Amendment rights to counter right-wing speakers at Berkeley last year, Trump supporters accused them of violating their rights. The media and establishment Democrats played into this narrative and condemned ANTIFA for the violence.Unfortunately, these same mainstream media outlets were silent when evidence was presented about who is really responsible for the violence. With the exception of a local news outlet, a Google search presented no coverage of threat made on video to burn down Revolution Books in Berkeley. Even worse, there were no reports of arrests in the case. In Trump’s America, these actions are just “fine”.
